Punch Out!! Review

[groundbeef2]

EVERY character is recycled? WHAT ABOUT DONKEY KONG?!

[retonete]

Little Mac>hajime ippo>Rocky Balboa>Mike Tyson

[cclizarkb]

This game suffers from laggy controls when you need split second reactions. Other than that it is solid.

[Thatmexicasiankid]

@KaiX6

Dude, seriously? You're replying to a 7 month old troll. Get with the times!

[cclizarkb]

now we need tecmo bowl and pro wrestling remakes.

[MFTOXICREEPER]

press 6 for pwnge

[TheMetalMilitia144]

Im not at all trying to be ass. I just cant get into this but i do quite injoy THE FIGHT LIGHTS OUT and im not compareing the two dont worry i know there nothing alike

[avgnman72]

i like the orignal better

[werwer607]

man i just LOVE this game!

[Sladeofdark]

i jus wish they would make MORE fighters.. 13 is not enough

[eurohim]

The rare boss after you get a 1000-0 record, Chuck Norris, is impossible to beat.

[Frothenbath1]

@eurohim So does the opening bell ring and Mac's head explodes because he realizes Chuck Norris is in the ring? Mac's internal logic sees the inevitable defeat and causes self-destruction to avoid the wrath of Norris.

[elidomantjendav]

who's down to see super punchout come out for the wii or the wii u with online functionality, and vs mode where you can be the other boxers like bald bull, then punchout will be the funnest game ever to play.

[key099able]

i like black mac more then the white

[jlong908]

this is my game of the year 09

[machinimamarlon]

Funny how two of the top comments are against each other

[wiilover07]

This game is super hard I'm such a noob at Punch Out the great Tiger is kicking my ass!!

[Ganonrocks1299]

I'm soo sick of people calling Doc Nigga it's VERY old, WE GET IT.

[sadailinikada86]

Nigga : - Keep up! Keep up! Or you're not getting your bike back lol!

[MadMonsterMansion]

is this the game where the nigga steal's your bike?

[sadailinikada86]

@MadMonsterMansion YES!

[AGentertainment]

@MadMonsterMansion 4:20

[pokefan1359]

@MadMonsterMansion i believe it is good sir

[shamkuzi]

@MadMonsterMansion yeah :D

[Skye896]

No online blah blah blah

Just like JosibiusZ not every GAME NEEDS ONLINE.

Go get friends and play head to head.

and punch out wii is pretty good.

check my review

[GoldenYuiitusin]

I take it this reviewer has not seen Donkey Kong?

[Kinta02]

this actually looks like you have exactly to punches. right straight and left straight. talk about variety :D

[xXMoLtEnMaStAXx]

@Kinta02 wow...... on epic games like tetris for example you rotate bricks and place them down sound boring but it really isnt so STFU.

[Kinta02]

@xXMoLtEnMaStAXx why the anger mister? ridiculous little brat.

i didnt even say it sounds/looks boring. YOU are the one making that point.

so dont try to bullshit people on the internet if you are not able to comprehend what they are saying.

[sylvur]

4:18 omg!!! N1gg4 stole Lil Mac's bike!!!

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

Lol @ everyone replying to my old account.

[cdatnikka95]

nintendo needs to hurry up and put this game as nintendo selects, because i really wanna buy this game!!!!! But its not worth $50.

[Joulesmarti]

@cdatnikka95 Its Nintendo Selects now!

[TehMineCraftVideos]

4:19 Hahaha! I remember that from the original!

[johnnyrosales1990]

i liked don flamengo nes version better

[TheBdude09]

never mind rating this coment

[IWillSlash91]

plus a 14th hidden character.

[buttermen1]

wasn't there 2 arcade Punch Out games

[SkyRider424]

This game was awesome but god was fighting the final guy the second time hard. Gave me some hardcore MUSCLES!!!

[jeffreyt3133]

00:55 ...........

[HBrawler]

Original gamers wont die if a great game lacked online multiplayer modes

Next Level Games knows that for sure

[thedarkabyss100]

bloody ads

[RSXemperor85]

My point is most of you shooter loving sweathogs need to drop the controller, look in the mirror, examine your lives, worry less about the next killstreak and worry more about taking a shower and losing some weight because you are all embarrassments to mainstream gaming. Go get a job and play some real games while you are at it. Get out of mom's basement and I don't know, see the outside world and maybe meet a actual girl that isn't online.

*The More You Know*

[lgnzim]

what's your fav kind've flower?? Mine's chocolate!!

[Biotasm]

Online is pointless...=_=...shut up about wanting online.....Nintendo games have always succeeded without online

[theguyinurbed]

FUCK WHO CARE ABOUT ONLINE ITS AN ARCADE GAME NOT COD, DIP-SHIT

[LeaderOfBroterhood]

4:19 NIGGA STOLE MY BIKE

[homer4556]

Get a life IGN all you ever do is slag games off.

[nickconsoldane1]

having only 1 new fighter is bullshit. theres tons of stereotypes that could have been used. crocodile hunter australian, guy from greenland in an eskimo suit, a rasta man, butterbean. the possibilities are endless. they played it was too safe. great game, but gimme some new characters dammit.

[TheDavidiraptor]

IGN Sucks!

[TheDavidiraptor]

Why you wanted online fuckes!?Online its like play with friends or brothers.If this idiot as me i give 10 Stars.

[TheDavidiraptor]

Why you wanted online fuckes!?Online its like play with friends or brothers.

[TheDim15000]

"lose a sense of discovery"?

BULLSHIT

in punch out wii you actually hear good voices, get a feel for their hilariously stereotypical personalities and fighting styles, not to mention the in between round threats and pre-fight animations, so you're not getting original design or concept, but you're learning so much more about these characters

[boredstudent]

who gives a fuck if there's no online. online gameplay is for Xbox LIVE and PSN. this is a great Wii game that was one of the best NES games I played

[ralithelion]

NIGGA STOLE MAH BIKE

[grumblekin]

Can't make IGN happy no matter what. If they DIDN'T include original characters, he'd be bitching and moaning how the true fans like him were let down by not including the classic guys...

[grabedigger]

Hey...no Tyson no good! At least they could have put some pidgeons there!!

[OSubZeroX]

¡OMG!

[gingervampireFTW]

wow, for a punch out addict, he kinda sucks...

[lordikhill]

I know I'm goanna get thumbed-down for this, but I somewhat agree with IGN ... THIS TIME

I don't really think online was THAT nessessary. And... Disco Kid? ...really?

[dabearcub]

The guy in the voice over stutters. FAIL.

[dying2l]

stfu get to the gameplay and controls.

[chucknorris767]

I'm glad they are the old characters I'm 13 and my dad showed me the wonders of this game for Nes in fact I'm still stuck on mike Tyson but I want to see the old guys not new guys especially the mother fu***r bald bull and who cares about online get some friends

[plutarkosky]

@chucknorris767 eh... bald bull was in the original nes version, or are you trolling?

[chucknorris767]

@plutarkosky yes he was and his bull carge was worse..much worse

[gonzalito1213]

ay este video me trajo recuerdos de todas las veces q mike tyson me noqueo en el original

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

My dad is such a noob at this game XD even I am better and I'm 13.Maybe because I have played the original Mike Tyson's Punch-out before.But come on,what is there not to understand about Punch-out?

[weezmurda]

Nintendo got the best shut

007 golden eye

donkey kong country

mario series zelda series

3ds the wii they unstoppable

sony an microsoft no comp bring back sega

[SuperPaYro]

is like rage of gladiator... dodge,attack,dodge,attack

[ConnorRocks1000]

cool

[SuperBeast811]

This game takes me back mmmmm nostalgia

[AnotherMarioBro]

At 1:10 he says that there have been four different Punch-Out!! games before it... is he sure? There's the arcade, the NES game, and the SNES game. Those are the official ones. There's also Fight Night Round 2 for the gamecube where Mac is a secret character. AND Doc Louis' Punch-Out!! that's from Club Nintendo. AND SSBB (Brawl) where Mac is a trophy. Can someone clear this up?!

[sebbeks]

@AnotherMarioBro There were two arcade games, Punch-Out!! and Super Punch-Out!! Then they remade those games for the console market.

[CommiloverLOL]

Whether or not old or new char's, the old punch out was the schizz the new one is too from the looks.

[Sanderss06]

2 new characters! Haven't these guys fought Donkey Kong?

[ClassicToonFan64]

@Sanderss06 He's a secret character... >:(

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

The people complaining about only there being 2 new characters can go suck a dick.The "old" characters have new moves,like Great Tiger and Mr.Sandman.And about online...really? Online is for kids who think it's "kewl" if you want to play with other people,make some friends.

[brian78721]

to tell the truth that was not a bad grade they didnt give them a worser one becouse no online and theres ownly one new character wtf fucking terible so ign you got a good review

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

@brian78721 good review? How old are you? Like I explained in my previous comment,oold characters have new moves.Really,play the original.

[orlokyshadow]

they need paqiao in this game!!

[TwistyMcFisty]

In my opinion, having the same roster of characters is a plus, not a minus. Why? Because those of us who played the NES version as kids have fond memories of these characters and now we get to see them fully animated with unique personalities. Besides, discovering new characters would fail in comparrison to finally getting to rematch that cheap bastard of a character after all these years. I give this game a 10/10.

[FlyGuy0120]

Doc Louis loves them chocolate bars! I love how much this game uses stereotypes. It just makes the characters more rememberable. Everyone says the button controls are better, but for some reason I've stuck with the motion controls all the way through. I'm actually a lot better with them...

[JosibiusZ]

well, u wanted the classic characters and see them way better or other guys who will make fans say: WTF with these guys?

and about no online... not every game needs online, specialy 2 player fighting games, it would take hours on finding somebody

is stupid taking down points only because of things that make the game better

[Random90sKid]

DK and DK are the only new characters.

Get it? DK stands for Disco Kid AND Donkey Kong :D

[DustInTheWind64]

I haven't played the SNES version, but I know that Doc wasn't such an a--hole in the NES one. He'd encourage you. Here he is just selfish, I mean "How'd you get so good? Oh right, I trained ya!" or dialouge about chocolate is just, unessacary.

[Patyat668]

How terrible, no online! Online is just a way for companys to make more money. I mean, honestly, who's ever got upset about a game because it has no online play?

[Random90sKid]

WAAAAAH NO ONLINE

Online is just a cheap gimmick video game industries use to make money.If you want to play with other people,get a life and find some friends.

[MrUberDeDuber]

@Random90sKid

What if you and your friends live far apart? Huh?

You say people have no lives because they make a very valid complaint.

THAT'S STUPID.

Don't you have anything better to do?

[machstarfox]

@Random90sKid the fact that people thumbs this up is clear that a bunch of wii fanboys are tight for having almost no good online games

[nutsack666]

@Random90sKid what if you play shooters...are you really going to get 12 people to bring their systems over and play system link at someones house? thats a ridiculous argument for "having no friends" not everyones a 15 year old kid with all the free time in the world to have all your friends over to play video games. sometimes online play is the most viable option, especially if you work alot of hours, have a family, and want to play a game online before you go to bed.

[rxl209]

@Random90sKid that has to be the dumbest coment ever on youtube

[RSXemperor85]

@rxl209 Its dumb if you are a loser living in mom's basement.

Here is the truth.

-Most shooter fans are OVERWEIGHT

-Most shooter fans make little to any money

-Most shooter fans have little to any friends and no, a "friend list" is doesn't count

-Most shooter fans have little to any contact with women unless with against their consent or getting slapped

-Most shooter fans smell like shit. (Black Ops release day)

-Most shooter fans hate Wii owners because they have actual contact with people

[rxl209]

@RSXemperor85 heres the real truth

-most wii fans are under 10 years old or over 60

-most wii fans are virgins

-most wii fans dont play shooters beacause there is no good shooters on wii (so they pretend they dont like shooters)

-most wii fans are mouth breathers

- most wii fans wouldnt know a good controller from a titty because theyve never touched either one

[alexmejia26]

@rxl209 Wowww dude, it seems like it is actually you who lost your virginity yesterday with that comment! at least that's what it sounds like because sex is just sex dude, not big deal. Why would a real man set that as a standard to be an adult? Besides, that has nothing to do with what we're talking about here.

[rxl209]

@alexmejia26 <----thats one offended virgin

[Sonicdude303]

@rxl209 -Most wii fans are virgins-

Riiiight because playing the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 is the same as actually having a girlfriend.

[rxl209]

@Sonicdude303 no its just people that arent grown up enough to be able to get pussy own a wii

[Sonicdude303]

@rxl209 riight because again owning a PS3 or XBOX makes you capable of getting pussy. It's fags like you that bring this Industry down. What the hell does playing on a certain console have to do with your sex life? TROLL HARDER QUEER!!!!

[rxl209]

@Sonicdude303 hahahaha ur mad? sounds like somebody owns a wii and is a complete virgin. have fun jacking off.

[thesimpsonsfan8270]

@rxl209 hey arent you that retard that fails at owning people

[Callofduty4641]

@Random90sKid lol isint it ironic u say get a life yet ur watching a game reveiw

[Sonicdude303]

@Callofduty46 What does that have to do with a person having a life? What he's trying to say is that "Online" is a cheap gimmick used to get you to buy a game and he's right! Games who's only good point is that they have good online multiplayer with nothing new about it, then that game is a crappy game. And yes, I am referring to CoD.

[Callofduty4641]

@Sonicdude303 lol here we go again yes i loved cod before but now i hate it but i know ppl who play online and have a life but if he is refering to the reveiwer then thats a diffrent story

[Sonicdude303]

@Callofduty4641 HA LOOK I"M A GUY WHO USED TO LIKE COD BUT DOESNT ANYMORE AND PRETEND TO HAVE A LIFE BECAUSE I KNOW PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVES AND WISH I WAS THEM I ALSO DONT KNOW THE MEANING OF PUNCTUATION!

[Callofduty4641]

@Sonicdude303 lol what ever (wat up with caps)

[tonkrogerio]

@Random90sKid and if you wanna stop trolling, get a life and find some friends :)

[HzEh]

@Random90sKid on the wii is pointless ... on the ps3 and 360 they have legitimate online games

[TheIndigoEffect]

@Random90sKid Why does one mode of play have to be superior to the other? Online functionality has its place, and so does local play. Fighters tend to benefit more from local play, and games like Demon's Souls wouldn't be nearly as good without it.

[Sapov]

@Random90sKid Amen to that, online sucks ass, videogames are for playing with real friends

[YellowMagi]

@Random90sKid

If you play a game off-line, get a life and find some friends?

[drgonzo952]

@Random90sKid That's a pretty lame excuse for not having online. Wii gamers are in denial, I tell you.

[acdlegend]

@drgonzo952 its not that were in denial, its just that we know games arent good because of online, like probably you and every little kid and "modern gamer" think. im not saying the online features of games suck, i love them, and would love to have good online feature in games like mario party, and super smash bros, but games dont need them to be good, which is what companies like call of duty. all they do is focus on multiplayer, and end up making shitty single player.well in cods casempsucks2

[corsht]

@Random90sKid What about friends that live far away?

[LILWAYNEISAFUCKNJOKE]

@Random90sKid Online is a gimmick? That's about the funniest thing I've heard since lil wayne. I'm guessing the telephone is a gimmick too?

[then9nthpheonix]

@LILWAYNEISAFUCKNJOKE you seem obsessed with hating on wayne.. good for you shows how much of a life you have

[LILWAYNEISAFUCKNJOKE]

@then9nthpheonix

LOL it took me 1 second to write that joke

lil wayne

[xInfected27x]

@Random90sKid Haha Ok.. Online Give You Tons Of Replay Value

[MyNameIsNintendo]

I want Mario as the ref.

[njw97]

NIGGA STOLE MY BIKE IN 3D!!!!

[skyace156601]

well at least the challenge is a plus intsed of a minus

[zteven3000]

You guys are freaking out over an 8.8. Come on guys thats not a bad score.

[mike478911]

Does Mike Tyson come out as the last fighter, or at all?........it was Originally named "Mike Tysons Puch Out".

[slappinyaface]

@mike478911 The original name is Punch Out, Mike Tyson is like the 3rd game

[mike478911]

@slappinyaface .....ahh...it one of those games, then wich was the original and platform?

[slappinyaface]

@mike478911 Punch was on arcade and so was Super Punch Out, then Nintendo came out with the first one of its platform and use Mike Tyson name to move units, and then the put out Super Punch Out, with Mr.Dream...and then there was a crappy game which was like Punch Out called Arm Wrestling, it feat alot of the punch out baddies, but with different names

[mike478911]

@slappinyaface ...Yeah.....I was thinking of that.....I think in this one is more dumbed out; the "TIMING" is completelly off, you can see the punch comming......ex;... SuperMachoMan on the original NES was more faster, tricky...and he flexed his "chest" .....:/.....thanks FCC dont want to see that in a semi3D game.....LOL....maybe I'll buy the game, not sure......thanks slappi.

[slappinyaface]

@mike478911 no problem, its still a fun game to play i know i was excited when it came out on wii, but it was a lil disappointing, just like NBA Jam, but maybe they might get one classic right

[snake2006]

Donkey Kong is a fighter too and he wasn't in the original games. Shame IGN, saying only Disco Kid is the only newb, when he is not.

Also, great game.

[zeroxlulu]

@snake2006 *sigh* DK is a secret fighter and out of all the reviews I've seen only 1 person said DK was in it no he didn't even say that he said - there are actually 14 fighters but i think i won't spoil the secret fighter-

[snake2006]

@zeroxlulu

Doesn't matter.

If they are doing a review, then they should come clean about everything.

Or even mention that there is a secret fighter atleast.

Not just pretend that Disco Kid is the only new fighter.

[zeroxlulu]

@snake2006 That's like spoiling a surprise =/ but yeah i guess they could of said something about a secret fighter but i don't think they should say who it is.

[MrSHURIKENCHO]

NIGA STOLE MY BIKE XD

[joeg816]

I would say the review is fair and pretty much spot on Wii is very lacking in games that support online play for some reason.

[popp1nbottlez]

@2:00 "it's almost as if _____(ridiculous assumptions of no value)_____"

[quikemon]

this game just need 2 things to be epic:

1: Mike Tyson

2: Referee Mario

[plasman1029]

This is a remake, not a sequel, we were lucky to get ONE new player.

[beruzeruku7]

No mike tyson... that is what punch out is all about beating Mike! I would never give it not even a 9 without tyson in game...

[dandynood]

Yet again IGN fail to do a review

[Jdisturbed27]

Haha I remember played this game on classic nintendo. Punch-Out is still awesome.

[legofreak18]

love the secret donkey kong fight

[JaMMeRHiLL]

What no MIKE TYSON? And no Mario referee! Who's buying this garbage? I'm not. Nintendo is going to have to do better in my opinion!

[dandynood]

@JaMMeRHiLL just those 2 problems and you give it a garbage rating? get a life

[buttermen1]

doc luis is secretly carl winslow

[petplatypus]

@owmyears how do you know it would lag

[lab478]

people that review games like this just piss me off

[jojishigesso]

wow...just because it doesnt have online gaming? youve got to be kidding me...

[seanMmaguire1]

this game would make any hardcore fighting game fan rip his/her hair out in sheer frustration

[musicboy311]

What the.... at 2:40, who the heck was that?!

[CtrlAltRepeat]

@musicboy311 Giga Mac

[Jarrodthegamemaster]

IGN, please stop reviewing games:(

[JREY209]

this is gay i just saw IGN top 25 street fighter charecters number 13 was zancheif

12 was fucken dan hibiki what the fuck that guy is a pussy he shouldn't even be on this list 11 is sagat 10 is vega 9 cammy 8 is dhalsim 7 blanka 6 ken 5 akuma 4 m.bison 3 chun li 2 gulie 1 ryu

[JREY209]

whats next they give one of the best games ever super mario bros 3 a 5.4

[ehsanraza58]

ign CANNOT review games.

[seapostepost]

game's good but its impossible

[nano69ify]

My god, Punch out isn't gonna be button mashing forever, ITS THE WII, MOTION CONTROLS! Get the facts right idiot reviewer.

[SONIC06FAN33]

Same characters

(ahem) DK

[hotdiddykong2]

@SONIC06FAN33

Disco Kid was also new, but him and DK are the only ones

[oxe161]

As a normal game i give it a 7/10, it don't have enough content

but as an 80s arcade and Punch Out fan i give it a solid 10000/10

[Kevinator64]

IGN! Doc will steal your bike for not giving at least a score of 9!

[arthurarneiro]

No online is a PLUS! I don't know about you, but I don't want an extremely laggy online with people dropping out when they're about to lose.

Also, I don't see having the same characters as a minus, also, that's the reason why they included Title Defense, duh.

So, MY final veridict is 10.0.

[PigmaskMajor120]

fuck you ign, puch out is a 10 all the way

[NOELSON341]

@PigmaskMajor120 I disagree.

it's more a 11

[PigmaskMajor120]

@NOELSON341 didnt even think of that,but now that I think about it,I give it a gogle(100 zeros)

[NintendoxFighter]

@PigmaskMajor120 Can't spell ignorance without "IGN" Whaaaat?

[thevashfan12392]

@NintendoxFighter IGNorance CAUSE THEY GET PAYED LOTS OF MONEY AS A BRIBE TO GIVE THEM GOOD RATINGS

[theRBninja]

@PigmaskMajor120 u may not realize this, but there is no such thing as a perfect game, just to keep in mind ;)

[DaDuttFire]

@theRBninja there is so a perfect game

[theRBninja]

@DaDuttFire all games have there own problems kid, even games that get 10/10 reviews have problems, like super mario galaxy 2, the camera was kinda annoying and didnt always follow you. red dead redemption: undead nightmare, 10/10, there was still glitches that annoy, and that one online mode(the on non zombie related) was pretty bad.

[rileytwist88]

@theRBninja uncharted 2 doesnt have any problems and u said that all games have problmes, and dont say that it does have problems if u havent played it

[rileytwist88]

@theRBninja uncharted 2 is a perfect game me and amost all my friends have played and we agree that it is the BEST game EVER made

[theRBninja]

@rileytwist88 ive never played it, i have the xbox and wii, so lol, no ps3, but i agree, it is 1 of the best games ever made

[SuaveTito]

@PigmaskMajor120 This review is BOGUS!

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

@PigmaskMajor120 I disagree.

I mean,it's a great game.But it's just a little bit too easy (except for Great Tiger.That fucker).But I think it deserves either an 8 or a 9.

[PigmaskMajor120]

@SuperAwesomeTiago TD bald bull was a MAJOR fucker, took over 100 tries to beat him. At least I got the headgear item

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

@PigmaskMajor120 Yeah,TD Bald Bull.He was a pain in the ass,alright.But TD Great Tiger is still worse for me.

[MrGrevy]

@PigmaskMajor120 Stfu. It's cartoonish and annoying.

[MrMarioLuigi1231]

@PigmaskMajor120 YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
